Rethink Chinese Culture Mentioned by Foreigners and Find a Way to Make It Heard

As China is getting more and more attention and Chinese culture is marching to the world, there come many internet videos on how foreigners think about China. By analyzing two videos"Chinese in foreigners’ eyes"and"China, How is it", I am going to talk about the most impressive culture mentioned by foreigners in these videos with further discussion.
